Hugo Laurent is determined to have me as his wife. He pursues me for a decade, resolute in winning my heart. But the night before our wedding, I overhear his conversation with his friends. "Are you going to marry Katherine just like that? What about your secret girlfriend?" Hugo is silent. Then, he says, "She's just a stand-in. She can't compare to Katherine. I'll consider keeping her by my side if she doesn't kick up a fuss. Katherine's generous—she won't mind." The following day, his secret girlfriend crashes our wedding and causes a stir. She shoves me off the stage, but Hugo darts toward her to protect her—she holds a jagged shard of glass to her neck and threatens suicide. "Are you going to choose me or her?" Hugo panics. He shoves me aside despite my injuries and snaps, "Get out of the way—I need to take her to the hospital! I'll make you pay if anything happens to her!" My heart dies in that instant. That very night, I purchase a flight ticket out of the country and leave him behind.

"The moment I leave, you're already with someone else? Were you cheating on me the whole time? Otherwise, how could you move so quickly?" Hugo snapped."That's none of your business," I replied calmly."But remember this—I'll be with anyone, just never with you."With that, I hung up, leaving Hugo screaming hysterically on the other end.Maybe that post really did cut deep.For a long time, he disappeared from my world.Meanwhile, I focused entirely on my research, publishing a paper in a top-tier journal and winning an academic achievement award.When Professor Harrington found out, he patted my shoulder with deep satisfaction."Kath, I always knew you had potential. You were born for academia. When you left to get married, I was devastated but powerless to stop you. I'm just glad you're back."I didn't say anything. I just smiled and nodded in agreement.That year, at the university's graduation ceremony, I was naturally selected to give the keynote speech as the outstandin

Hugo choked on his words, staring at me in disbelief.He didn't understand why I was treating him like this, but this was exactly how he had treated me before.I thought he would get the message and back off.Yet, to my surprise, he didn't leave.In fact, he clung to me even more persistently than when he first chased after me.I let out a sigh. "As expected. What you can't have is what you want the most. Once you have it, you stop treasuring it, don't you?"Hugo froze. "What?"When he finally processed what I meant, his expression darkened."Katherine, how could you think that? When have I ever not cherished you?"Haven't I been good enough to you? Tell me, what have I not given you? Where have I not taken you? Just because I stayed by Sophia's side for a few days, you have to blow it out of proportion like this?"I didn't answer his question.Instead, I shrugged, smiling faintly. "If that's what you think, then there's nothing I can do about it. How about this—I'll agree t

The sticky note slipped from Hugo's fingers.He immediately picked up his phone and called the bodyguard from earlier. The moment the call connected, he asked impatiently, "Regarding that letter you found, are you sure Katherine wrote it? Where did she go?"The bodyguard replied, "Mr. Laurent, it's real. I checked the surveillance footage—Ms. Blake left it at the entrance and then walked away."The letter said she was breaking up with you and returning overseas. That's why I asked if you wanted to go after her."But since your heart is now with Ms. Mendes, it doesn't really matter—""Shut up! What the hell do you know?" Hugo snapped."Find out which flight Katherine took, right now! I need to go after her!"He hurriedly grabbed his coat and rushed toward the door.But before he could leave, Sophia stirred awake, groggily stumbling after him.She grabbed onto his arm, pressing herself against him as she mumbled, "Hugo, shouldn't we spend our wedding night together?"Hugo shove

Hugo snapped back to reality, instinctively nodding his head."I didn't think Katherine was the type to pull something like this. Turns out I was wrong about her. Using such a cheap trick is beneath her."We'll continue the ceremony. Ignore her."With that, he slid the ring onto Sophia's finger.Then, he lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead.Sophia beamed and asked, "Hugo, are you willing to spend the rest of your life with me?"Hugo instinctively wanted to correct her—after all, he had only promised to give Sophia a wedding ceremony and nothing more.Spending a lifetime together was never part of the deal.He had always planned to share forever with Katherine, but when the words reached his lips, he changed them. "I do."Thunderous applause filled the hall, yet Hugo felt an inexplicable emptiness inside.His gaze swept across the crowd, searching for a familiar figure, as if waiting for someone to jump out and tell him this was all a joke.But he found nothing
